And now Serbia, Romania and Albania are in the contest for staging the cupfinal too. "Bourdello to kolochanio" according to the late Harry Klynn.

Last stage today of this tour that was resurrected last year. The lads crossed Crete and Peloponesus to finish in ancient Olympia. Results and table: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_International_Tour_of_Hellas

And I see them now at this very moment at the Leuko Pirgo showing the cup

FT 1-1. Good result for #3.

Brandon 1-1 !!!!!!!

HT 1-0.

Another injury. Oliveira substituted and Brandon takes his position.

Already 1-0 down.

Hmmm. Who will referee the games now? Marinakis himself?

The former PAOK B is being resurrected in Xanthi.

Tsiggaras won the French Cup on Saturday though he was not included in the squad for this match. In fact he played just a few minutes the whole campaign. But that is enough.
